Document Description
Western Canal Water District (WCWD) is proposing to sell up to 30,000 acre-feet of water to participating member districts of the State Water Project Contractors Authority (Buyers) during the 2008 irrigation season. Buyers are seeking up to approximately 400,000 acre-feet of transfer water from various willing sellers in the Sacramento Valley during the 2008 irrigation season. Purchasing this water would lessen potential water supply shortages to these Buyers that may occur as a result of dry hydrologic conditions.
